Knickerbocker Retreat | Hot Tub- Game Tables

Perfect for a group getaway to the lake or your next family vacation under the pine trees our Knickerbocker Retreat is the ultimate cozy tree house chalet backing right up to the national forest in the heart of the downtown Village under one mile from local hiking trails and the marina and packed from head to toe with your vacation stay in mind.

Peace and tranquility await you as you make your way from the sloped driveway parking area to the entry level sun deck where you are immediately greeted with outdoor patio furnishings where you can dine outside al fresco or enjoy the secluded private hot tub tucked into the corner of the deck overlooking the quiet treed neighborhood. Enter your chalet where you are greeted with gorgeous hardwood floors, knotty pine beamed ceilings, and big open windows that will provide your group with the perfect balance of natural lighting and views. The open floor plan is a great space to spend your time together lounging on the comfortable sitting couches and warming your toes in front of the stone wall size corner fireplace as you pop on your favorite movie on the flat screen TV and relax. Entertain your group with a convertible game table offering billiards and ping pong which is sure to provide you with hours of fun together here under the pines. Around the corner your chef will find the spacious kitchen and formal dining room areas packed with all that you need to whip up your home cooked meals and holiday feasts including oak cabinets stocked with cookware and utensils, a gourmet Viking stove, and stainless appliances including a dishwasher to ensure your cleanup is an absolute breeze.

Boasting four spacious sleeping quarters along with matching bathrooms to accommodate a larger group with no problem your party members will feel perfectly sprawled out throughout your furnished two story chalet home, each room is made up for your arrival with warm linens, blankets, pillows, and fresh shower towels for your vacation stay.

For your added convenience this cabin offers a pool table and ping-pong table as well as a separate laundry room with a washer and dryer available for those wet snow clothes or extended visits no matter the season you choose to visit the mountains.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
House filthy and in disrepair
The house was filthy, including mouse droppings all over the house. All dishes/cooking items and kitchen utensils caked with food and grease. Had to shovel for 2 hours to clear driveway, parking, deck and walkways to access the property. Dishwasher didn’t work. Exposed wiring/outlets uncovered.Property managesment referred to all our concerns as “inconveniences” and sent maintenance and housekeeping staff 5 different times making incomplete or inadequate repairs/clwaning. In the end we got a small refund 400 less than I requested.
